Professor wanted! Planning and optimising your academic career
Content
The postdoc years are essential for academic career development. During this period, researchers are often torn between conflicting priorities of intellectual independence, on the one hand, and meeting professional obligations towards their employers, on the other hand. Postdoctoral candidates are expected to develop an independent publication record, apply for external funding, create a distinct research profile, build a teaching portfolio, communicate their research, build a network, undertake research stays abroad, etc.
In this seminar, we will address questions such as: Which of these tasks are particularly important? What are the top priorities? Which time frame is appropriate and compatible with my personal private priorities? How important is the habilitation?
Seminar contents:
• Peer learning as well as individual coaching sessions
• Requirements for a long-term career in academia
• Analysis of the individual current situation, reviewing the current academic profile
• Development and specification of the next goals and planning of the next steps

Storytelling in Academia
Contents
The amount and complexity of data available to researchers is growing fast. This means more researchers are publishing, and more frequently. What’s more, researchers face the challenge of making their findings available to a broad, international audience, much of which is online. The challenge, therefore, is how to get your research to stand out while remaining true to the conventions of science writing in your field. What’s needed is a clear narrative.
On this dynamic workshop, you’ll deepen your understanding of your audience, the value of your research, and how a story is the best place for the two of them to meet. You will then discover and begin to craft the story of your research with a renewed sense of why you and your readers should care, i.e. what’s at stake. Employing proven storytelling techniques, your writing will not only become clearer, but more impactful and memorable as well.
Seminar contents
• Learning why readers read, and writers write
• Understanding how story communicates value
• Discovering the elements common to all stories
• Identifying the narrative of your research
• Applying narrative frameworks to abstracts, introductions and whole papers
• Peer review’ – receiving feedback on your stories from your colleagues
You will be asked in advance to submit a max 1000-word text (e.g. an abstract, or a suggested narrative for a paper) to the trainer for individual feedback.
Please note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants. Comparable to classroom seminars, we ask you to turn on your camera during online events for an exchange at eye level.

Contents
Spätestens seit nachhaltiges Forschungsdatenmanagement (FDM) im Sinne der „FAIR-Prinzipien“ im Kodex zur Guten Wissenschaftlichen Praxis (GWP) der DFG sowie in Stellungnahmen einiger Fachgesellschaften fest verankert ist, sind Begriffe wie „Datenmanagement Plan (DMP)“, „Nachnutzungspotential“ und „Publikation in einschlägigen Repositorien“ immer häufiger zu lesen, besonders im Zusammenhang mit den formalen Anforderungen der Forschungsförderung.
Um weiterhin erfolgreich Drittmittel einwerben und während des gesamten Forschungsprozesses einen Überblick über Ihre digitalen Daten behalten zu können, machen wir Sie in diesem Workshop Schritt für Schritt mit den genannten Anforderungen vertraut. Wir stellen Ihnen außerdem geeignete Templates, Tools und Services vor.
In dem Workshop lernen Sie Nutzen und Bestandteile von Datenmanagementplänen kennen. Ziel ist, dass Sie Ihren individuellen Handlungsbedarf erkennen und lernen, FDM in aktuellen und zukünftigen Forschungsvorhaben aktiv zu planen und zu dokumentieren. Abgerundet wird das Programm von einem Überblick über die Unterstützungsangebote des C3RDM, insbesondere in Bezug auf die Antrags- und DMP-Beratung.
Grundkenntnisse im FDM werden vorausgesetzt. Diese können beispielsweise durch den Besuch des „Workshop Forschungsdatenmanagement (FDM/RDM): Eine praxisbezogene Einführung“ oder unser E-Learning [https://www.edulabs.uni-koeln.de/goto.php?target=crs_1339&client_id=iliasedulabs] erworben werden.
In dem Workshop beschäftigen wir uns mit den folgenden Themen:
• Was ist ein DMP und wofür ist er nützlich?
• Welche Rollen gibt es im FDM?
• Wie kalkuliere ich FDM-Kosten und was ist förderfähig?

Professional Leadership
Contents
Please note: The language of the event will be German or English, depending on the needs of the participants.
As a university professor, you act in various roles and manage manifold responsibilities that come with holding a leadership position in research (acquisition of third party funding, leading an organizational unit, contributing to the academic self-administration, etc.). To retain the freedom to pursue one’s own research, it is vitally important to make the most effective use of your staff resources, to focus and to prioritize.
In the workshop, you will reflect upon your different tasks as an academic leader. The seminar provides you with useful tools for successfully managing your team in a variety of sometimes challenging situations. The leadership guidelines of the UoC build the basis to unfold a whole set of skills for thoughtful and effective social interaction.
Some theoretical approaches will be supplemented by sharing ‘best practices’ in various tasks. During the workshop, you will also have the opportunity to discuss your individual questions about "leading in research/an academic field".

The workshop provides you some knowledge to systematically grasp manifestations of the everyday uses of power in organizations and the „games“ played in your own environment. An opportunity is given to reflect on your own power resources, to identify strategies for successful ‚navigation‘, and to gain perspective on how to further enhance your personal micropolitical competence pursuant to the workshop – whether in academia or elsewhere.
Seminar contents:
- Science system and organization (focus on Germany)

Intermediate Leadership
Contents
The positions of junior research group leaders and experienced postdocs are often described as a challenging “sandwich position”. On the one hand, in these positions, you lead single researchers or an entire scientific team, on the other hand you are dependent on the heads of departments etc. This requires competencies in leading a team as well as in lateral leadership.
One aim of the seminar is to introduce you to the tools needed to lead a team successfully. As a basic model, the approach of transformational leadership will be introduced. Further, you will reflect on the different expectations others have of you in your specific leadership role and get to know instruments for clarifying such expectations in discussions.
Seminar contents:
• Model of team leadership, fundamentals of transformational leadership
• Leadership guidelines at the University of Cologne
• Expectation management in a “sandwich position”
• Motivation and delegation in a scientific working environment
• Master difficult discussions/feedback with team members and on lateral level solution-orientated

In Führung gehen – Promovierende erfolgreich betreuen
Contents
In Führung gehen – Promovierende erfolgreich betreuen
Promovierende sind Forschende in einem frühen Stadium. Die Promotion ist daher in den meisten akademischen Fächern der Nachweis, dass Graduierte zu einer selbständigen, größeren wissenschaftlichen Arbeit befähigt sind. Durch dieses Verständnis kommt der Betreuung von Promovierenden eine große Bedeutung zu, da die Betreuenden die Aufgabe haben, die Promovierenden zu selbständigen Wissenschaftler*innen zu entwickeln. Promotionsbetreuung ist somit eine maßgebliche Führungs- und Personalentwicklungsaufgabe des/der Betreuenden.
Seminarinhalte:
• Im Workshop können Sie eigene Betreuungserfahrungen reflektieren.
• Sie lernen unterstützende Instrumente kennen, die auf einer international erprobten Praxis fußen.
• Sie haben Gelegenheit, erlebte herausfordernde Betreuungssituationen im Workshop mit Hilfe des kollegialen Austausches zu diskutieren.
• Sie erarbeiten sich neue Maßstäbe guter Promotionsbetreuung.
Bitte beachten Sie: Unser Fort- und Weiterbildungsangebot ist für die Interaktion der Teilnehmenden konzipiert. Vergleichbar mit Präsenzseminaren bitten wir Sie für einen Austausch auf Augenhöhe Ihre Kamera bei Onlineveranstaltungen grundsätzlich einzuschalten.
